Coach Talk

Khristian's Team
A big key to success in football is exploiting the mismatches. Thanks to a stellar outing from Aaron Rodgers, we doubled up Randall DeNeutte at the quarterback position this past week (28.68 points to 14.14). Rodgers went 32-for-52 for 442 yards and three TDs in a 31-23 loss to the Lions.
Randall DeNeutte
